Ha got ya, this is suppose to be for people that still believe that myth about keeping goldfish in a bowl or a common pleco in a 10 gallon tank

The answer to that is simply NO, and here is why

Here is also a site the provides info on proper care for goldfish

http://www.firsttankguide.net/goldfish.p...

It says a MINIMUM of 10 gallon per goldfish, right?

Here is the correct info on a common pleco and his needs

What does it say here, oh a minimum of 40 gallon, and you want to put him in a 10 gallon?

Wrong information everywhere, constantly I here from people that get advised from store employees that a pleco can go in a 10 gallon and a goldfish can live in a bowl?!?!

Come on people get real and do some research before you buy a fish

Voice your opinions

Go ahead and have fun

I agree. My 6th grade class bought 2 goldfish on our field trip to Chinatown, which were in less than a gallon carrying case. Someone bought a 10 gallon tank which we put them in. Then we added 2 Otocincluses. At least it's better than that puny carrying case, but it's still overcrowded. I'll try to convince them to upgrade to a 20 gallon tank.

goldfish need ponds not tanks :( and plecos need food also! they eat algae because they are starving.
Evelyn, I agree with you completely. People wouldn't think of buying an ipod or mobile phone without doing some research first but when it comes to [Gold] fish they wade straight in without a moment's thought & the poor fish suffers when things go wrong & we are constantly repeating ourselves when the situation could have been avoided with a little forethought.
i agree i see questions on here all the time like that and i am on here almost all day. The fish stores say that stuff because they want you to buy the fish and they die so you come back and get more thats seams cruel because they are basically killing the fish
